Our rental house is next to a creek. This is a better looking section. I also understand that there are Nutria ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coypu )which inhabit the creek. They are an invasive and somewhat destructive species with no known natural predators. I am concerned that my dog will be become too curious about these beasties and they might tangle with her. We are looking into a wire mesh fence to keep her out of the creek and in relative safety.
I didn't know nutria had such a wide range. They are a huge problem in Louisiana where they damage the marshes, but I have never had to deal with them. I hope Riley stays safe!
@eudora@robz@marlboromaam@joemuli@ninaganci Thank you so much. I am just so happy to have water near by now. My access to the creek has a deck and path or sorts but I am not so sure about the safety of the deck. I also don't want to give Riley the idea that even considering going down there is an okay thing to do.
